Manh had a traffic accident 10 days ago, causing him to break a leg and have to wear a cast. He is currently unable to walk and has to rely on relatives for all his daily activities. Despite the accident before the exam day, Manh still tried his best to study and participate in the exam.

Sharing Manh's situation, the volunteer team at Thanh Chuong 3 High School's exam site, led by Mr. Nguyen Nhat Duc - Secretary of the school's Youth Union, took on the task of picking up and dropping off Manh during the exam days.

According to teacher Nguyen Nhat Duc, in the exam room, Manh was given priority in a suitable position to do the test. He was given a desk suitable for a wheelchair user. Manh himself is also a good student.

During the first exam, thanks to the care and help of teachers and volunteers, Manh's exam mentality was quite good. He said he completed the exam as expected and will try harder in the following exams.
